Most students have no major safety or health incidents while abroad. However, the most important person in your staying safe and healthy while abroad is YOU! In signing the study abroad Conditions of Participation, you acknowledge the central importance of taking responsibility for your own actions and decisions while abroad. A key part of this responsibility is the serious commitment to your own health and safety. You have a number of resources to help you keep safe and healthy while abroad.

- works with you and OGE before departure to set up support systems for health and personal conditions that require special accommodation

- assists you in getting health care from medical professionals on site

- is in constant contact with the GU home campus on safety and health issues
